The Pregnant Mommy Survive on Unlimited Supplies-Chapter 298 - 297 feels that it’s relatively easy to make a living this way.
Chapter 298: 297 feels that it’s relatively easy to make a living this way.
Hua Mi frowned, staring at Qin Xiaolan who bore a look of blame towards her, and scoffed,
"What does it have to do with me? I’m not the one who’s supposed to save you. If you’re capable, just go back."
It was as though they were saying Hua Mi was being nosy.
In reality, after encountering Gong Yi, Hua Mi was merely here to fill a minor role.
His battle plans did not include any opportunities for Hua Mi to physically engage zombies.
Gong Yi had directly assigned Hua Mi to guard the supplies inside the tents.
So, the one who should be saving Qin Xiaolan and the other women was Gong Yi. Hua Mi was just watching from the side.
Her gaze swept over Zhong Zimo.
Zhong Zimo’s eyes held an unreadable expression, and he remained silent.
It was clear he was just watching the spectacle unfold, with no intention of speaking a fair word.
He didn’t like Qin Xiaolan, and of course, he didn’t like Hua Mi either.
Qin Xiaolan continued to point at Hua Mi and berated her,
"It’s all because of your meddling that people are dragged out from the warm comforts of the second basement floor!"
Brightly lit and well-stocked, the second basement floor had everything she needed. All she had to do was to be with men, and she could live a comfortable life.
Who asked Hua Mi to save her? She never begged Hua Mi for help!!!
Hua Mi grew impatient, turned around, and headed towards the tent.
However, Qin Xiaolan seemed to have found an outlet for her emotions and frantically began lashing out at Hua Mi.
Here, the easiest target to bully was the pregnant Hua Mi.
She stepped forward, still pointing and cursing at Hua Mi,
"You just love ruining people’s lives, you..."
Before Qin Xiaolan could finish her rant, Hua Mi spun around and slapped her face.
The blow sent the already weak and thinly-dressed Qin Xiaolan tumbling to the ground.
Blood trickled from the corner of her mouth.
Inside the tent, Gong Yi turned to look but did not intend to stop them.
"Qin Xiaolan."
Hua Mi, holding her waist and with her belly pronounced, took two steps forward.
On the snowy ground, Qin Xiaolan, as if only just realizing she had been slapped, looked up at Hua Mi in shock.
Looking down at her, Hua Mi said coldly,
"If you’re willing to do this kind of work and think this is an easier way to survive, no one is stopping you."
"But you should take a look around and realize where you are. This D city is full of zombies; beneath your feet, countless zombies are reveling."
"You’ve reached the point where you’re conducting your business over the heads of zombies."
"No one expects you to be moral, but at least don’t act like one of the zombies and end up causing us trouble."
Qin Xiaolan on the ground couldn’t hear a word of what Hua Mi was saying.
Even if she did hear, she wouldn’t understand.
Her mind and heart were focused on one thing only.
Hua Mi had hit her, hit her, hit her!
She sprang up from the snow and charged at Hua Mi, with a look of desperate retaliation on her face.
As Qin Xiaolan’s body passed by Zhong Zimo,
Zhong Zimo stepped aside.
Shi Caixia, on the other hand, stepped forward and positioned herself between Hua Mi and Qin Xiaolan, taking the brunt of the collision.
The next instant, before Qin Xiaolan could even get a word out, her collar was seized by Hua Mi.
"Let go, let go of me, ah ah ah, let me go..."
Qin Xiaolan, as if possessed, was dragged by Hua Mi across the snowy ground.
Everyone watched in surprise, seeing the size of Hua Mi’s belly; they hadn’t expected her to be so strong.
Despite her heavily pregnant belly, Hua Mi managed to drag Qin Xiaolan all the way and toss her into D City.
In the midst of the falling snow, Hua Mi looked at Qin Xiaolan, whom she’d thrown onto the soft snow-covered ground,
"Do whatever you love to do. So you like the flesh trade, huh? Go ahead and do it, who cares to bother with you?"
Having said that, Hua Mi turned around, glanced at Shi Caixia who had gotten up from the snow, and called out,
"Let’s go, we’ve got supplies to gather."
An entire building’s worth of materials, to be wasted if not collected.
When it came to supplies, Zhong Zimo had something to say.
However, he didn’t approach Hua Mi directly. Instead, he entered the tent to find Gong Yi, who was in a meeting with Zhou Cheng, and said,
"Commander Gong, I hope the supplies in the administration building can be returned to us. They were bought with the city reserve funds from City C."
Gong Yi looked up, furrowing his sharp eyebrows as he gazed at Zhong Zimo,
"Get out!"
They were in the midst of a meeting inside the tent, making plans to blast open a layer of ice and eliminate all the zombies trapped within.
How could just anyone casually enter the Commander’s tent?
Zhong Zimo wanted to say more, but Zhou Cheng stood up and pushed Zhong Zimo out.
He said to Zhong Zimo with a smirk,
"Secretary Zhong, haven’t you figured out the situation yet? Just hurry up and leave. Once the zombies are blown out, none of us will be able to spare a thought for you."
"But those supplies..."
Zhong Zimo was fixated on the supplies, attempting to persuade Gong Yi to pressure Hua Mi to return the supplies to him.
But Zhou Cheng shook his head,
"It’s no use talking to us. Each of us still depends on Sister Hua to survive. Go, go, go, just hurry up and leave."
He shooed Zhong Zimo away as if he were driving away a fly.
Making Zhong Zimo clench his teeth.
After Zhong Zimo was chased out of the tent, Mi Guoyuan sidled up and asked:
"How did it go? Any prospects for progress?"
Yellow Hair and the others returned to the administration building and brought up the matter of Zhang Jifeng being killed by Gong Yi.
A rift arose within their management ranks.
A group of street rats, following a man known as Brother Monkey, silently stood guard inside the administration building.
After discussing with Mi Guoyuan, Zhong Zimo decided to throw in his lot with Gong Yi.
As it turned out, Gong Yi’s prospects for advancement were much greater than Chen Hu’s.
Zhong Zimo took a stroll around D City and realized just how perilous the outside environment was.
He had no reason to reject Gong Yi, who was within arm’s reach, and instead regroup his strength outside.
So, Zhong Zimo reassessed the situation, convinced Mi Guoyuan, and brought the women from the minus second floor to seek refuge with Gong Yi.
Once they gained a firm foothold by Gong Yi’s side, the future would be wide open.
Being Gong Yi’s right-hand man meant countless opportunities were ahead to rise to the top.
Facing Mi Guoyuan’s eager gaze, Zhong Zimo’s eyes darkened slightly,
"Gong Yi comes from the Garrison. He’s different from us in the management. We’ll have to take it slow."
The implication was Zhong Zimo hadn’t managed to capture Gong Yi’s significant attention.
Mi Guoyuan gestured towards the direction of the gates of D City,
"Why not put some effort into Gong Yi’s woman?"
Wasn’t it quite straightforward for administrators to ingratiate themselves with someone?
Since Gong Yi was impervious, they could start with Hua Mi. There had to be a way to remain by Gong Yi’s side and realize their ambitions.
Yet Zhong Zimo held Hua Mi in considerable contempt, he himself hardly understood where this contempt for her stemmed from.
He snorted disdainfully through his nose,
"Just a woman, what decisive role can she play? Isn’t she just a man’s appendage?"
"Let’s first make sure the women who came out from the minus second floor are settled."
